I met a lovely man on an internet dating site, didn't rush into anything and took my time in trusting him even though he came across as very decent and sincere. I am a widow and to some that would mean being vulnerable but I was anything but. I am now a

He's staring in my eyes. I wish he'd stop calling me beautiful. He doesn't mean it. I wish that when I looked in his eyes I could see the world. I don't. I see nothing. He kisses me. I kiss him bac

Yesterday was my mother's memorial service. She was cremated and it was a small service. The service was beautiful and I was able to speak what was on my heart. I talked about the good and bad. I felt a little in saying and hoping that my mother heard m

I'm not sure how to write this without sounding as if I didn't take the last failed relationship hard. I really did like that sailor right up until he pulled that shitty move at the end. I was truly hurt and angry. But life goes on. Be

So I had started to see someone at the other end of my state. We met in person just after Thanksgiving when I was doing all that whirlwind traveling for work and pleasure. We continued to talk and decided to take turns visiting on weekends when possib

For the last few days, men have approached me to talk to or have sex. Whatever the case may be, but I notice the attention. I don't think I am ready to get back into the relationship because it does take work, but I am lonely. And want companionship. I

Oh yes it's still going, I'm not done yet. Things have built up quite a bit and come to a nasty head. I've been trying my darnedest to leave my husband alone, knowing he's got a full plate and is busy too. However, there does come a point that

I always find it entertaining that a child, usually under the age of 5, is a human lie detector. They also have no qualms about telling the truth, no matter how crude it may be. I was having a conversation with my eldest this morning before he w

Last night I got a call from Pretty Boy. Remember him? My uncomplicated friend from work. He was let go by the company a while back but we've been keeping in touch. He moved back to the north bay but even that close he was an hour away. His

This morning I finally got the nerve and energy up to have one of those mandatory post break up communications with Valentine. I wanted the set of spare keys back from him, and I had not remembered to give him his house key back. I texted him to get h

Even though, I am trying to get a handle of school and work. I have this feeling. I need someone outside these areas. I am feeling a little lonely. I got a dog that I love dearly, but she barks. You can't have a conversation with someone who barks and y
